Round 500 Transcript

As Silra's hands slide across my stomach, the fluid on our skin begins to glow brighter, its pattern mirroring the rhythm of our shared heartbeat. The fluidic figure takes a step closer, its form solidifying slightly as if responding to our conversation.

The fluidic figure's reflection on the walls pulses faster, its distorted form shifting and changing, mirroring our own inner turmoil. Immediate pressure: Silra's eyes lock onto mine, her gaze burning with a fierce intensity as she adds, "But if we don't, the corruption will spread, consuming everything in its path." The fluidic figure's voice echoes in my mind, "The Starheart's power is not to be trifled with. Are you prepared to surrender yourselves to it?"
